A very positive experience. Right from stepping onto the pontoon the crew were helpful, friendly, welcoming and considerate. The weather was not the best for the week, but the crew had a Plan A, Plan B and Plan C at all times. The scenery every day was spectacular, and the skipper ensured that the boat motored at a suitable speed to enjoy it all. The walks onshore were very enjoyable. Crew knowledge was excellent. At all times throughout the week, the crew were patient, understanding and tolerant, willing to spend time answering questions and prioritizing the customers, no matter what other tasks were to be done. All the crew were courteous, professional and welcoming, putting the wishes and comfort of customers first. The food was of excellent quality, it was lovely to have fresh food every meal, with freshly made bread too! Jaya provided a fabulous range of meals, with something different every time and the beautiful table settings were a huge credit to Sophia! There is absolutely nothing that can be faulted in the cruise!

This was my second cruise with Hebrides Cruises, and it won't be my last! We saw Common and Risso's dolphins as well as Minke whales, and were able to observe some fantastic behaviour while watching them. We also saw White Tailed and Golden eagles, as well as many different sea birds. Added to this was spectacular scenery as well as interesting trips ashore, where we could go for guided walks or head off alone if that was preferred. The knowledge and enthusiasm of our guide Linsey, and skipper James was also much appreciated. Finally, we were very well taken care of by our bosun Cat, and Sarah provided us with plenty of excellent food. All in all it was a fantastic trip, thank you.
